I'm writing a novel which revolves around the survival of a group of people in the aftermath of a zombie invasion. Just out of curiosity, what are some bad cliches you've come across while reading zombie-themed novels and watching zombie-themed movies ? Thanks c:
I appreciate the opinion, but...
I'll make this short - I'm plotting a novel series and I like the idea of my character being special in some way that the villain wants to capture or kill her. But there are so many cliches associated with this. I want to have a way for them to be special that's not cliche. Any ideas?
Some of...
I know that I, for one, have been plagued by them for the past few weeks. They're everywhere, and I can't seem to give them the boot because they're part of the basic plot - oops, sorry, giant cliche! Tripped over you there, wasn't watching my feet... anyway. I have the whole blood-right-ruler...
When I say I Love You
does it say enough
can you feel, what you are in me
and see my eyes, as I tilt my head
silently peering to your soul
one grin from a smile
sly lips not quite there
but coming in closer to show
with no need to tell
in those words we find breath
only to be left breathless
OK, so my friend and I are trying to write a road trip movie, but we want to try to avoid most, if not all, of the cliches that constantly present themselves. So, if you all would be so kind as to list the most prevalent cliches, we will be eternally grateful!
Thank you!!
